Problem of IIS6

| No Comments | 1 TrackBack

For installation of Movable Type 3.2 on Windows 2003, I do so many test and ask a lot of questions on the Movable Type Support forum and got no answer. Yesterday, I join the following mail group: perl-win32-users. I received the right answer same day. That's a good place to get help and find the real expert like Jan Dubois.

IIS6 changed the default directory for CGI script, so you could say IIS6 is the problem. On the other hand I don’t think it was ever specified that you could rely on the current directory being any specific value, and using relative paths in CGI scripts is just a bad idea.
